    Apr 27 2023

    In 2021, 16-year-old Willard Miller struggled to keep his grade up in his high school Spanish class. But instead of creating a study plan or asking for extra credit, he decided to do the unthinkable. He called upon the help of his friend, and the pair beat 66-year-old Nohema Graber to death. Candice and her producer Julie Berke discuss the facts of the case, and what could have possibly driven the teens to murder a well-loved teacher in the community.

  • The Life & Crimes of "Wild Bill": An Interview with Journalist Nick Foster

    The Life & Crimes of "Wild Bill": An Interview with Journalist Nick Foster
    Sep 17 2024

    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong speaks with journalist Nick Foster to discuss the case of William Holbert, also known as “Wild Bill.” On the run from U.S. authorities, Holbert and his partner, Laura Michelle Reese, hid away in the idyllic landscape of Bocas Del Toro, Panama, where they worked together to kill at least six American expats and steal their properties. Candice and Nick discuss what he learned through his on-the-ground research of the case, how the area of Bocas del Toro became the perfect backdrop for Holbert’s crimes, and what it was like for Nick to speak with Holbert face-to-face in prison.

Not your average true crime podcast

If you’re looking beyond true crime as an entertainment, this is your podcast! Kandace uses her experience as a psychiatric nurse and an FBI profiler to give her audience an in-depth psychological analysis of infamous killers.
